Glassblowing Process Steps - (Reading > Apply a Diagram)

Hi Priya, Great news — I found a birthday gift idea for Marcus! You know how he's always admired those handmade glass sculptures at the craft fair? I found a studio called Clearfire Glassblowing where he could actually learn to make something himself. I downloaded their tools and process guide and it's really detailed. I was thinking of booking him the longest option since he's the type who likes to 1. That one would let him create something truly artistic. It's not cheap — it costs more than both of the shorter sessions combined — but I think it's worth it for a milestone birthday. I'm a little worried about his son Ethan, though. Ethan is only 14, so he 2. Marcus would probably want to bring him along, but I'm not sure Marcus would enjoy the experience if he had to supervise a teenager the whole time. Maybe I could come along and keep an eye on Ethan while Marcus focuses on his piece. One thing that concerns me is the schedule. Marcus works Monday through Thursday, so 3. That only leaves three days, which doesn't give us much flexibility. I'd better reserve soon since they warn that 4. Also, I noticed the guide says you can't take your creation home the same day because 5. So we'd have to plan a second trip to pick it up. That's fine — we could make a day of it! Let me know if you want to split the cost with me. Cheers, Danielle
